President Os Cuba Charges Plot By Reds HAVANA (UPI) — President Manuel Urrutia Monday night accused the Communists of [dotting "treason” in Cuba. The charge set the stage for an internal power struggle between right and left in Fidel Castro’s revolutionary government. It added up to new trouble for the regime already beset by dissension in the armed forces and national police and threatened by "counter - revdlutionary” conspiracies being uncovered throughout the country. Urrutia, who has been seething quietly at Communist tactics in Cuba since the Castro revolution succeeded Jan. 1, went on television to denounce the Communist newspaper Hoy which had criticized him. He labeled it a “Soviet instrument in the cold war.” Urrutia said the Communists were doing “horrible damage to Cuba ... trying to create a second front against the United States and in favor of Russia.” His words were by far the mast harsh anyone in the Castro regime has used against the Communists. Premier Castro himself has refused to condemn them, saying only that he welcomed anyone who worked for his revolution. But Urrutia Insisted, for the second time in two days, there were no differences between Castro and him. He said such. ceD-art* were ‘ counter-revolutionary. ’ Castro reservwl his harsh words for the U.S. senators who have been taking information from Maj. Pedro L. Diaz Lanz, former chief of the air force who fled to the United States after charging there were Communists in the Cuban government. Castro called the senators “political simpletons .. . (who) seek to put a premium on treason.” Urrutia agreed with Castro that Diaz Lanz should be returned here for trial. He called the former air force chief a “despicable traitor.” Diaz Lanz was one of Castro’s strongest supporters during the revolution. His break with the regime was the first evidence of a crumbling of the so-called "revolutionary unity” of the armed forces. Mrs. Homer Capehart Has Knee Operation WASHINGTON (UPI) — Mrs. Homer E. Capehart, wife of the senior senator from Indiana, underwent a knee operation at Georgetown University Hospital today. Capehart’s office reported that her condition was good.

Primary Election Held In Virginia RICHMOND, Va. (UPI) — Virginia Democrats lined up at the polls today for a primary election which could oust the narrow legislative majority that adopted a moderate, local-option approach ' to school integration last spring. Opponents of Gov. J. Lindsay) Almond’s "freedom of choice” . program have attacked several ; members of the General Assem- ; bly who supported it, and have promised a stiffer stand against ; ’ federal court orders if elected. The staunch segregationist can--1 didates, centering their fight on the Senate where Almond’s pro- ' gram passed by only one vote, ' have made no concrete proposal but called for something akin to ' the "massive resistance" policy t which closed nine Virginia schools . before being ruled unconstitution- : al by federal and state courts. Twelve senate seats are at , stake in the primary balloting and at least seven involve a test ' of the “freedom of choice” pro- ’ gram, which allows localities to J accept integration, close their schools or juggle their budgets . to maintain a constant threat of ; school fund cut-offs if integration ■ attempts are pushed. f ! Says Safety Barrier Would Prevent Crash i , INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — The tower operator at Terre Haute’s i Hulman Field "morally and • legally” should have used a safety i barrier to prevent a crash which injured an Indiana Air National 1 Guard pilot, Indiana Adj. Gen. ' John W. McConnell said in an offi--1 cial report issued late Monday. , McConnell’s report, which was > forwarded to the chief of the Air . Force Division of the National Guard Bureau in the Pentagon, t closed the Indiana phase of an inl vestigation into the crash last ■ July 2. ! Maj. William Layne, 37, a fullf time pilot for Lake Central Airlines, suffered serious burns over ! 40 per cent of his body when his 1 F-84 jet fighter blew a tire, struck . a fence, skipped across a ditch and burst into flames in a cornfield. The accident occurred as Layne took off for a practice bombing run over Camp Atterbury. McConnell said earlier he was j I "certain” the accident would not . have happened if a runway arresting barrier at the field had been [ used as., requested over his radio by Layne when he saw the accit dent coming. "Conflicting statements by tower personnel and Air National Guard personnel indicate a misunderstanding which might have been prevented by a more thorr ough and concise Air Force regulation as well as FAA regulations,” McConnell’s report said. “However, since the only written document, a standard operational . agreement dated April 9, 1959, . was on file in both FAA and Air B National Guard installations, that li morally and legally the tower e operator should have actuated the - barrier.” Investigation of the accident was y conducted by Maj. Robert H. Hort man, Fort Wayne. McConnell said - the present and future use of the barrier has been cltrified at the a two Indiana Air National Guard ■ bases to the satisfaction of the 1 wing commander, Brig. Gen. William R. Sefton, Fort Wayne. He said recommendations had , been forwarded to Washington and “we contemplate no further action at state level concerning the barrier failure which occurred on July 2.” Rochester Youth Is Crushed By Machine CULVER, Ind. (UPI) — Brent Blacketor, 20, Rochester was killed Monday when he attempted to climb onto a heavy earthmover at a construction site on Ind. 17 a half mile north of here. Blacketor fell from the machine and it backed over him. Reports Change In Store Ownership Carl Kipfer, formerly cf Decatur, is the new manager of the Berne Master Feed store, Inc.

McCarthy and Gov. Orville L. Freeman jointly announced their co-chairmanship of a "Humphrey for President” organization just a year in advance of the Democratic convention in Los Angeles.

Rolvaag of Minnesota was named executive vice-chairman of the Humphrey movement. Campaign offices will be opened in St. Paul this week and later in other cities, the cochairmen said.

announcement would mMceu po { change In hi/ plans to defer any formal declaration until about the end of the year. ,McCarthy called a news conference in his Washington office with Freeman linked in by telephone to answer questions from his, office in St. Paul. "I believe, as does the governor,” said McCarthy, “that Senator Humphrey is the best qualified candidate among the leaders of our party, and that he can moat effectively carry the Democratic party position through the campaign to victory." McCarthy said Humphrey's record on civil rights, agriculture, labor, small business, immigration and foreign affairs Is “clear and candid.” He added: "Sometimes, unfortunately, the truth is forgotten—that the statesman must firs be a poliical leader in his own right. This is he path which Hubert Humphrey has traveled; not only is Minnesota his constituency, but the Midwest, the nation, and the world.” Fear Polio Spread Throughout lowa DES MOINES, lowa (UPI)— Health officials said today the polio epidemic here may be tapering off, but feared the disease would increase in other parts of the state.
